How lively :) So many editors suddenly being active and answering an off-hand statement. Oh well... It is more of stereotype thing than anything. Just some kind of association that just stuck to me when I learned of the retcon. Something about Dante being already badly overpowered and that making him a half-angel goes straight into God Mode territory.

You shouldn't think that the new face of DmC is a spin-off of some sort; I think I remember several quotes that proves that the guys are serious. I can't remember anything definite though, unfortunately.

I agree that DMC3 wasn't a reboot per se, but it is definitely very different from both of its predecessors. It's cocky and funny and has lots of really hot-blood; compared to it, both DMC1 and 2 are much more... level-headed. Besides, while it retained the gothic style, it doesn't have the dark horror atmosphere of DMC1.

A thought occurred to me: don't you think that two origin stories per five games is a bit much?..

P.S.:There is one more thing I'm concerned about. It is kind of minor, but... well, it's music. I really liked the score of previous games (especially 3&4), and although it is a bit early to judge, I'm not sure if I like the new style... ...What do you think?
